Shirlee Schacter shares this information - The Annual Golf Tournament of the Central Ontario Pionairs was held on Monday, August 19, 2019, at the Royal Ontario Golf Club. Twelve (12) Teams made up of 48 golfers played a challenging yet fun-filled format of modified four person scramble. The golfers enjoyed the “made-to-order” weather amidst rolling countryside scenery and a refreshing breeze. The day’s activity was followed by a special “Lions Roar” buffet of carved roast strip-loin with all the trimmings! After dinner, Valdy Prieditis, the Tournament Director presented trophies and prizes to the major winners. All golfers received a prize as there was a wide variety of booty to choose from. The evening climaxed with special “cash” draws for some lucky ticket holders. Here are some photos - |

It seems the whole aviation world is trying to get more women in the cockpit but a Russian airline pilot’s contribution has gotten him in hot water. Russian authorities are investigating after video emerged of a non-pilot female passenger taking the controls of an An-24, possibly on a two-hour scheduled flight from Yakutsk to Batagai at the invitation of the Captain.

Robert Arnold, who volunteers at the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada, has sent in numerous articles relating to the Vickers Viscount and he was instrumental in helping to restore the Viscount displayed at the museum. He recently sent the following complimentary message to Terry. We wish to thank Robert for his gracious comments. Hi Terry. It has always been a pleasure, and an honour, to have been able to supply you and your colleagues any aircraft info I might discover. Over the years, as you are well aware, the NetLetter has become a vital link between the past and the present for aviation history in this country. I appreciate and also thank you and your colleagues for all the effort that has been put into each issue. You and your group have done an amazing job. I will continue to supply anything new that I might come across or receive into my collection. Robert W. Arnold |
